I added the notability tag. I think the burden of proof rests on the creators of the article. Thousands of journalists worldwide have "revealed" or "brought to light" newsworthy items. It is their job description.
WP:PEOPLE says "A person is presumed to be notable if he or she has been the subject of published secondary source material which is reliable, intellectually independent, and independent of the subject." The only citation in this article which is not the subject's own work, is a press release announcing the winners of an award not notable enough to have its own article. I call on proponents of this article to show us the goods.

Not a "proponent" of the article, but I just did a quick search and there are a number of articles discussing his work online--seem to be mainly non-RS blogs though. Not sure he meets WP:AUTHOR, I guess his best bet would be 1. The person is regarded as an important figure or is widely cited by peers or successors. I can't quite find evidenct that he's "widely cited", unless I'm overlooking something here. Qrsdogg (talk) 20:06, 19 September 2010 (UTC)Reply
Having run across one of Mister Arrend's articles for Market Watch entitled Why is Putin Stockpiling Gold? I immediately recognized his view of currency. He believes, based on what he has written in the previously linked article, that currency serves only as a medium of exchange. This is about to be painfully proven to be a serious error of judgment. If currency cannot serve as a store of value, which precious metals can do, then it will not long serve as a reliable means of exchange. The United States dollar and all other fiat currencies are about to undergo a major crisis. Not even a government as powerful as that of the United States can defy the laws of basic economics. It is more likely that the US will find a way to defy gravity or round off the value of PI to exactly three. If Mister Arends is a person of note, then he is a such a person for giving voice to the same mistake our school system has carefully inculcated since 1972. -- Brothernight (talk) 11:20, 6 September 2012 (UTC)
Dear Brothernight,
The talk page on Wikipedia is not meant to serve as your personal blog. Perhaps you should be saving your comments for David Stockman YouTube clips.Reply
While currency is more susceptible to losing its value than precious metals, it is also less prone to the irrational exuberance that caused every major currency in history to abandon capricious metals as a monetary standard. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.249.246.183 (talk) 14:14, 10 November 2012 (UTC)Reply
